Ah, the game that shall not be named, so many happy memories, so many complete nightmares

Wasn\'t always such a terrible place you know, I remember the early days when mithril armour was the very best you could ever hope for and that seemed impossible to attain! The map was tiny, the community was warm, welcoming and friendly. Certain parallels can easily be drawn here, but I know that here we\'ll learn from the mistakes of the past and of others and not end up the same way and repeat history

This thread almost makes me nostalgic, maybe I\'ll see if my old character still functions and blow a few cobwebs off her

Immensely enjoyable and worthwhile! Thanks XpYtZ

A few screens.

Always good to see FL emerge again!

The presence of you and your guild is always a welcome one Ayshe

Geez, I\'m not that old... I know nothing about AB, I never saw a single screenshot from AB! But I can ask for info on AB...

There you go! A little bit of the dark history of the lands that were known as Atomic Blue.



Entering this land was in itself a major feat of bravery and perseverance at times, with many a long night spent gazing at the static portal to the promised land.

If worthy of the task and you successfully made the perilous journey, it was a dark place where the light of the great azure crystal barely shone. The lands stretched only as far as the eye could see, with no promise of adventure or hidden treasure to lure the curious explorer.

The warm cozy interiors of buildings we now all see throughout the land were cold and barren, all were forbidden entry with stout doors firmly barring our way.

Perhaps worst of all was the integrity of reality in that realm, which hung by a thread. Solid looking floors often melting into nothingness as once more you fell to your doom and the grey world of the undercity.

Despite it\'s flaws though it was a land of great promise, togetherness and friendship, inspiring many to greater deeds and has delivered us finally here, to the promise of Crystal Blue and the continued future of Planeshift.

As there are quite a few interesting guilds appearing I may as well get straight on with Round 4 of voting for the next guilds to be entered onto the Tavern Guild List.

You know the drill by now, go to the Tavern Main Page, check out the links to the guilds in the running and then vote for your favourite in the poll on the same page, when enough votes have been cast I will add those who have proven worthy to the list.

Note: you must be registered at the tavern to vote.

I would also like to use this thread to try to get any news of those guilds which are seemingly inactive. If you\'re a guild member, or have any news of the below guilds please make a post, otherwise these guilds will soon be removed. Thanks

• The Forsaken Ones
• Disciples of the Blackflame

Lil\' me again

New PC so only pic I have on file so far, excuses, excuses, etc.

Well, I have to be totally honest about this in that I didn\'t even realise (or had totally forgotten!) this even existed. I do vaguely remember now Annah proposing something ages ago in MB and I must\'ve said yes I guess, seems like a long time ago *curses her feeble memory* (must be an age thing)

Anyway to cut a long story short, yes it looks like I am a member, but have had no dealings, or have actually heard anything from this organisation since I joined (hardly surprising during the final dark days of MB). But I\'m sure with the renewed activity of CB this will change and if it\'s a group of people out to make good things happen in the world of PS, preserve some of the great things we had, and to stop CB becoming a powerlevellers paradise, then I\'m all for it and would happily contribute!

Thank you for explaining that so nicely Monketh and Efflixi

As to why they are voted on, it provides a very effective way of deciding which guilds make it to the list - a degree of quality control if you like. I used to add all guilds but that just resulted in a large list full of dead and inactive guilds which needed constant attention and editing.
I think the voting process also adds a little bit of healthly competition between new guilds and I hope maybe will encourage a better quality of guild in PS.
If you\'d like to discuss things any further stickman, or would like any specific questions answered, then feel free to send me a PM.

fken - I have deleted Edhelgarth from this round and will include you on the next, which shouldn\'t be too long after this round considering the number of guilds we have appearing.
